Ingredients
- 6 cups water divided
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice about 4 medium lemons - add more if you like more tart lemon flavor
Instructions
- Add 1 cup of water to a medium saucepan along with the sugar and blueberries. Set the mixture over medium heat and bring to a boil.
- Cook the blueberry syrup for 5-7 minutes, or until the sugar has dissolved and the blueberries have burst. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the blueberry syrup to cool slightly before continuing.
- (Optional) To get even more flavor and color out of the blueberries, use an immersion blender to puree the blueberry sauce (or use a high speed blender) until it is mostly smooth. This is optional but it will make straining the sauce easier!
- Pour the blueberry sauce through a fine mesh sieve and stir until all of the liquid has been passed through the sieve. Discard the solids.
- Add the blueberry sauce to a large pitcher with the lemon juice and remaining 5 cups of water. Stir to combine and enjoy over ice.
